Does your car charger port shut off if you turned off the engine and remove the key? If it is the camera should turned off with in the time you set it up. And if the car port don't turn off after shutting off the engine you're going to do it manually.Hope this help.

You can turn the camera on and off. It takes both video and stills. Do NOT buy this one, it's a piece of crap, it will break easily.The gears are CHEAP PLASTIC, where the shaft goes thru center of gear, the screw that tightens on the shaft will strip on first crash.

There are 2 buttons located on the upper outside edges of the cameras that provide 3 settings. 1. IR ON 2. IR OFF ,3. IR AUTO . If not all of the positions work it's just a minor switch defect . Send it back for a replacement. The two buttons on the front are for On/Off and Camera Selection. Hope that helps.

Yes, turning the camera on/off is not working right. First delivered one was bad and the replaced one is also the same bad condition which is very frustrating. This camera is a junk. I wasted my money for it. I do not use this camera any more. If it is possible for you, I would like to return the camera to you for refund. Hiro Inoue

Your turning it off. Click button one time orange light should come on. That's pause. Click it again blue light comes on. Its recording.

I can not answer the question directly, but I would suggest the party go to the Nikon web site and try topull up the Reference Manual for this camera. There is a section called "Easy Auto Mode" that may addressthis issue. It is to detailed for me to included it in this response.

Make sure that when you set it up for use that you go into the camera settings and enable the remote for "quick response." I've noticed that when I go to long without using the remote it enters a stand by mode and I have to re-enable it again. If that doesn't work then you might need to change the battery. Happy shooting!

on the left side of the control, push it to activate the camera, don't get confused with the red and green LED on the camera, green means it is off, red means to record. good luck!

You can put your camera on the continuous shooting mode and as long as you depress the button, it will continue to shoot. I do not think you can set the self timer to automatically do the same.

No you don't need to manually switch it on/ off, when you start your car engine, this video Camera Recorder automaticaly run record by itself.

Hi Joseph, the camera can be set to Program Auto, but no Manual Mode option. Thanks_Mitch

There is no full auto mode. You may be better off with an excellent DX camera like the D5300.

There is no on-off button. You have to plug and unplug, or turn off through device. Device should control recording.

There is a slide switch on the bottom of the camera housing, it's easy to shut it off. Now when you turn it back on..it MIGHT or MIGHT NOT sync with the base unit.You will have to pull the camera down, walk over to the base..turn the camera on and press the button on top of the base and wait for the blue LED to flash on the camera...then your back in business.

No. The remote is not the only way to start and stop recording. The remote does not have a way to know whether the camera has been started manually. The remote does have tactile feedback when you press the start-stop button, and the LED flashes once with each press.

If you want to keep recording at night with engine off, you should hotwire to battery directly, have a large enough memory and make sure you tether the cam with your computer and make sure it's on continuous since the default is little event when your vehicle stop suddenly or when you go over a bump. Hope that helps

The best answer I can give is referenced in the user guide on page 8 which states: "The auto-rotate feature is available only for video capturing, not still photo." and "Adjust your camera orientation before you start recording. The rotation feature will not be activated throughout the recording process." and "You can disable the auto-rotation function in the "General Settings" with the XS100 software."
